EIGHT

WOW...can't believe Rook is 8! I remember thinking that when Carter turned 8, how crazy that was to have a kid being baptized. Now it's Rook's turn. I've realized this past year how much I LOVE these young ages. Sometimes I wish I could go back to when my 1st 2 boys were little so I could appreciate and enjoy them more. I guess I'll just enjoy them now! :)

Rook told us the other day that this birthday better be a good one...cuz last years' was way boring! (I was in the hospital, having had Jack the day before) So, we didn't celebrate his bday...
He got to have a friend party this year and chose to go swimming.
Rook has a great group of friends. They are all such good kids and so kind!

ONE!

I can't believe Jack is already one! We have enjoyed every minute with this little guy and look forward to many more. It almost makes me sad to think that I won't have to buy formula or baby food for him anymore. I am sure I won't say that about diapers though... :)
